# Automatic Offers: eBay

Send offers automatically to eBay buyers who watch your listings.

### Where to find it

Go to the [**Dashboard**](https://app.nifty.ai/automation) and find eBay → Offers.

### Setting up offers

**Base price:** Which price the discount should be applied to. See [**Automatic Offers**](/automation/automatic-offers.md#base-price) for how this works.

**Discount:** Minimum 5% off.

**Personal message:** A message to send alongside the offer.

**Tip:** To increase conversion rate, eBay recommends always adding a customized message to offers.
{% endhint %}

### Eligibility

Not all eBay listings can receive automatic offers. eBay's requirements include:

* Listing age and format
* Limits on how many offers a buyer can receive
* Items must be in the buyer's cart for at least 2 days

If offers aren't sending, check [eBay's help page](https://www.ebay.com/help/selling/listings/selling-buy-now/adding-best-offer-listing?id=4144).

### Auto-accept and auto-decline

Nifty sends offers, but eBay's built-in features handle incoming offers from buyers.

When creating listings in Nifty, you can set:

* **Auto-accept** — Automatically accept offers above $X
* **Auto-decline** — Automatically decline offers below $X
